Pros

They allow toilet breaks and there is free tea and coffee. There is not many positives apart from that.

Cons

Management is awful. Treatment of staff is awful. Compensation for the years of service is subpar. Strong DEI culture means more suitable candidates for positions get over looked to fill a quota. Men in the company are essentially treated as dirt. They advertise jobs with a list of essential requirements and give the job to someone with none or very few of the requirements that were advertised and discussed. Overall an abysmal place to work.

Pros

Good salaries if you have a permanent contract, if you do not you are employed through an agency and your raises and benefits are not guaranteed. Career progress depends heavily on which organisation you are in.

Cons

There is a reorganisation almost every 1.5-2 years at this point, and this latest one resulted in so much more chaos than usual. Having gotten rid of a large majority of employees, but processes are not being updated, workload has increased, no one seems to know which way is up.
